Uncovered news story

One of the biggest uncovered news stories about the Middle East is the success of the Lebanese state and its security services in uncovering two dozens Israeli terrorist and espionage networks. More than 140 accused Israeli agents have been arrested. This is probably the biggest success story against the Mossad since the founding the Israel. Yet, barely a story in the Western press. Of course, the Israeli press is a tool of the state in matters dealing with intelligence.
